this november election. in virginia alone, there's been a 92% drop in such requests. why? it's happening despite the implementation of a 2009 voting law which was supposed to help military voters get their absentee ballots overseas. eric eber sol is the founder of the military voter protection project. he is not happy. eric, why? why is it so low? 92% drop in virginia, a heavily military state? >> yeah. it's, you know, it's really shocking, but most of the fingers point straight to the pentagon. the new law that was passed in 2009 was supposed to help make it easier for our service members to register and request an absentee ballot. the inspector general issued a report, of course, about three weeksing that indicated that the pentagon did not implement that law or did not fully implement that law as they were supposed to, and now what we're seeing not only in virginia, but throughout the united states are shockingly low numbers of ballots being requested by military members and their spouses. megyn: so the w

look, this is going to be a changed election. president obama's vulnerable to this because he's running a, basically, a stay-the-course campaign at a time when the country has said they want to change court even if they haven't decided if they want to change presidents. you had a fox news poll last week which showed only 24% of americans mostly want to stay on the same course, 74% say many policies have to change, so obama has not explained how he would deliver that change or why a second obama term would be different than the first. so that's an opening for romney, because romney can make the case that there will be no change in the next four years because obama didn't deliver the change he promised four years ago, that he said he would lower the unemployment rate to 5.6%, but we've now had our 43rd month of above 8% unemployment. he said that family incomes would go up, but they've gone down $4,000 under his watch. he said that bush was unpatriotic for adding four trillion to the debt over eight years, he's added five trillion
